Obsessing on Project Bags & a Madbird Giveaway!

I’ve been a knitter, off and on, for 20-some years and have only recently started using project bags. Of course, now I have bunches and I love them all.

Before I used project bags I used plastic zip bags, which would tear, needles would poke through and I always stuffed them too full to zip closed.

A small selection of my current project bags.

Project bags are fun. They come in bunches of patterns and sizes. They stay closed. Best of all they somehow make a pile of UFOs, like the one above, seem downright happy. I always felt such accusation from plastic zip bags.

I can also tag them.

Name of the project, needles size, anything I need to know to grab the right bag.Â Another use for tags that I love, too.

Alecia at Madbird has donated a Project Tote for a giveaway, winner’s choice of in-stock fabrics.

Prize value $34.

You know how it works: leave a comment on this post between now and midnight eastern time,October 22nd. One comment will be chosen at random to answer a skill testing question. If the commenter answers correctly they will win the prize. If you have already won a prize from us in the past year, please do give other knitters a chance.

I love the Madbird project bags and would love to be the owner of one. Your idea of making a project tag to put on the project bag is genius. The only bonus of having a clear plastic bag over the more asthetically pleasing and earth friendly project bag.

A giveaway! And I’m not (quite) too late!
I love funny owls, and bright yellow/oranges, and this was posted on my birthday! Might have to turn a birthday check into an owl bag, unless the random number generator loves me, then the check will turn into yummy yarn to fill the bag!
